In the simulation "Power Up!", a natural gas facility had a power rating of 6, a cost of 40, and an impact of 5. Imagine a new kind of power plant with an output power of 12, a cost of 60, and an impact of 3. *
Which of the following statements is correct?
  • A: The new facilities produce a given amount of power for LESS COST, but MORE IMPACT than natural gas.
  • B: The new facilities produce a given amount of power for LESS COST, and LESS IMPACT than natural gas.
  • C: The new facilities produce a given amount of power for MORE COST, and LESS IMPACT than natural gas.
  • D: The new facilities produce a given amount of power for MORE COST, and MORE IMPACT than natural gas.
